Hyundai Motor Co said on Thursday it has decided to adopt Tesla Inc's electric vehicle (EV) charging technology in the United States and Canada. Joining their global peers including Ford Motor , General Motors and Nissan in adopting Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS), Hyundai's move takes the Elon Musk-led company's superchargers closer to becoming the industry standard at the expense of the rival Combined Charging System (CCS). The South Korean automaker's new EVs will come exclusively with a NACS port starting in the fourth quarter in 2024 in the United States and in the first half of 2025 in Canada, Hyundai Motor said in a statement.
